Not bad . Powder coat would be cheaper. Had my 05 Silverado done for 150 ,gloss black. You can probably get the material for $100 or less and do it yourself.

Not that I'd suggest it for everyone but I'm Blacking the '06 Silverado bumpers with some rubber roofing stuff I have.
4 reasons for doing it this way.
1. I found the stuff on a job sight so it's free.
2. Being rubber? It will deflect stuff and be easy to replace/remove if needed.
3. It's a work truck. Not a show truck so who cares?
4. The adhesive on the back is some killer stuff. Nothing extra needed.

Just to see if I wanted a black grill? I used electrical tape.
